An IP address is a unique number which separates an Internet site or a hosting server on the Internet, so in the event that you have a dedicated IP, it'll be used just by your Internet sites and will not be shared with other people as it happens with shared Internet hosting accounts. If you have your own server, you will have a dedicated IP, but you may need additional ones for many different uses. Provided you have an electronic store, for instance, you will need an SSL certificate for it, to make certain that the payment info that your clients submit will be encrypted and secure. The same is valid in the event that you have a login form of some type and you want the usernames and the passwords that visitors input to be secured. The SSL certificate requires a dedicated IP, which should be different from the one which you already have on the server. You may also need an independent IP for an app such as a VoIP server, or if you want a slightly better overall performance for a particular Internet site, which may affect its position in search engine results.
Extra Dedicated IPs in VPS Web Hosting
If you opt for one of the virtual private servers plans which we supply, you'll get one dedicated IP address, and with every server that is ordered with a Control Panel, we supply a second one absolutely free. If you wish to use additional IPs, you'll be able to add them to your package deal with several mouse clicks at any time. In case you require them at once, for example, you'll be able to add them to your order and they'll be assigned to your VPS the minute it is set up. In case you need them later, you can add them using your billing CP and they shall be available within a couple of minutes. You may assign them to personal sites with a few mouse clicks or to any of your clients - if you're using the virtual server to launch your own web hosting company. You may take advantage of this upgrade as often as you wish and you'll be able to renew the additional IP addresses with your plan for so long as required.
Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Servers Hosting
We provide three absolutely free dedicated IP addresses with each dedicated server we offer, but if you require more, you'll be able to order them without difficulty and they'll be assigned to your machine immediately. The upgrade can be acquired both on our order page and inside the billing CP, so you can get additional IPs whenever you need them - in the beginning or at any time later on. You can order the upgrade in increments of three and include as many IP addresses as you want at any moment. You may renew just the IPs which you need along with the Internet hosting plan, so if, at some point, you need less IPs, you may simply renew those that you need and the other ones shall be removed from your web server. With our upgrade, you can use a dedicated address not only for your sites and apps, but also for your clients’ websites and apps - if you are using the server to run an Internet hosting reseller company. Any IP on top of the default 3 IPs could be used for so long as you require it.
